From 245254f7081dbe1c8da54675d0e4ddbe74cee61b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Vernet Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2024 10:09:20 -1000 Subject: [PATCH] sched_ext: Implement sched_ext_ops.cpu_acquire/release() Scheduler classes are strictly ordered and when a higher priority class has tasks to run, the lower priority ones lose access to the CPU. Being able to monitor and act on these events are necessary for use cases includling strict core-scheduling and latency management. This patch adds two operations ops.cpu_acquire() and .cpu_release(). The former is invoked when a CPU becomes available to the BPF scheduler and the opposite for the latter. This patch also implements scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() which can be called from .cpu_release() to trigger requeueing of all tasks in the local dsq of the CPU so that the tasks can be reassigned to other available CPUs. scx_pair is updated to use .cpu_acquire/release() along with %SCX_KICK_WAIT to make the pair scheduling guarantee strict even when a CPU is preempted by a higher priority scheduler class. scx_qmap is updated to use .cpu_acquire/release() to empty the local dsq of a preempted CPU. A similar approach can be adopted by BPF schedulers that want to have a tight control over latency. v4: Use the new SCX_KICK_IDLE to wake up a CPU after re-enqueueing. v3: Drop the const qualifier from scx_cpu_release_args.task. BPF enforces access control through the verifier, so the qualifier isn't actually operative and only gets in the way when interacting with various helpers. v2: Add p->scx.kf_mask annotation to allow calling scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() from ops.cpu_release() nested inside ops.init() and other sleepable operations.
